A car edit from your own clips, cut on the beat.

A car edit is a short vertical video of a car where the picture changes on the hits of the music. The cuts carry the energy, so the clips themselves can be simple: a walkaround, a drive-by, a close-up of the wheels or the lights.

Clippra's Car Edit does exactly that with your footage:

• Hard cuts on the beat, about every 0.7 seconds: on every beat, or on every second beat when the track is fast.
• A punchy, high-contrast look over the whole reel.
• Every shot fills the frame, also clips you filmed in landscape.
• No text. The car and the cuts carry it.
• The pop: when a clip shows the car clearly, the car jumps in early with a white outline before its clip opens around it. If no clip allows that, the reel stays with hard cuts.

• 1. Upload your car clips and your sound. Short phone clips are fine. The music is required, because the cuts follow its beat.
• 2. Pick Car Edit. Use the “Car edit” button on your dashboard or the Car Edit card when you create a reel.
• 3. Get your reel. Clippra checks that your clips and music are enough, then renders a 9:16 car edit of about 10 seconds.

Car Edit follows a ready-made pattern, so there is no first cut to rearrange. If you want to decide the order of your shots yourself, make a regular reel instead and check the cut before export.

Honest boundaries, so you know what to expect:

• The pop needs a clearly visible car that can be cut out from the background. A car far away in a wide shot will not pop.
• There is one look and no text. For your own line on top, pick another effect reel.
• You do not set every cut yourself. If that is what you want, a timeline editor fits better; the CapCut comparison says when.
• Clippra does not generate or add footage. Everything in the reel comes from the clips you upload.
